Nats considering injunction to prevent release of further conversations. https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/107976219/national-party-has-strong-case-for-injunction-against-jamilee-ross-if-he-chooses-to-release-further-recordings Does JLR have a ...
I'd suspect there are quite a few Nats on or near the front bench that have tied their future career prospects to Siomon... such as O'Connor. It won't just be Siomon that's toast once the dust settles! NB: I wonder how national popcorn supplies are faring?...
The latest in the JLR saga of burning bridges. Another day, another tape! https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/107988220/new-tape-of-jamilee-ross-and-simon-bridges-surfaces
chris73 do you really think the Nats have the sort of patience required to sit it out? Somehow I doubt it! Anyway I like your strategy - Bridges is the gift that keeps on giving... As for a new leader for the Nats, who do you think that might be? From ...
+ 1 Bill Interesting isn't it, that if you don't agree with or believe the narrative out of FUKUS MSM with regard to Syria you're open to accusation of being a 'Putinista' or 'Assadist' etc. Oh I forgot - The West are always the 'good guys' and RUSSIA DID ...
I am one of those left leaning people that have great admiration for those journalists.. You could add Craig Murray to that list? Seems that for some, Bellingcat is somehow credible yet Pilger, Fisk, et al are not! Pretty far out if you ask me. Keep it up ...
How is Clinton any different? Deplorables anyone? Way to tar many millions of people with one broad brush. How about HRCs criminal activity? You see, it doesn't matter who or which side they come from, they're all batting for the same team. Trump is a ...
Yep - gotta protect those 'black' revenue streams the CIA et al love so much. When are the general public going to click that the war on drugs has always been about militarising police, erosion of civil rights, funding for 3 letter US spooks, and ...
I'm in agreement that there is another market crash on the horizon akin to the GFC of 2008. IMO the next event will surpass 2008 in terms of impact on ordinary people around the world. Crystal ball gazing, my pick is the bull market in the US will continue...
+100 Exactly! Had the currency created from Fed QE been directed at main street as opposed to the banksters the outcome would have been very different. Alas the money-go-round is a rigged game and always was. The plebs are there to be milked, and to die as...
The ANC, was never allowed to disrupt the economic paradigm that keeps a few rich, and many poor. Couldn't agree more. Root cause = Neoliberalism. I might add, the ANC sold out the revolution in 1994 by doing a deal with big capital thus ensuring ongoing ...
+1 Very well said.
+1 Well said!
+100 Adam. The thing is, there is no proof and none has been offered. Only unsubstantiated claims and and accusations. UK/US MSM in overdrive pounding the 'Russia did it' narrative is a sure sign something is off. This whole saga smells like a sad attempt ...
This woman single handedly wrecked lives, by lowering benefits to a lowest common denominator, ruining income levels, just as Bill Birch of “Contracts Act” infamy did. Indeed - Paula is one awful specimen that's for sure and rightly deserves the moniker. ...
The leader of the opposition, Simon Bridges calls his deputy 'Paula Benefit' in a live interview!!! https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/105892634/simon-bridges-accidentally-calls-paula-bennett-paula-benefit
Putin owns Trump. Really? I'm seriously bewildered by your position - do you not recognise the propaganda thumped out by NYT & WaPost is bullshit to the highest degree? As far as Trump goes, the guy is vulgar. He's single handedly enhanced and expanded ...
100 % Agree. IMO Assange is one brave guy - he shines light on deep dark secrets airing governments very dirty laundry. Clinton is evidentially corrupt yet has thus far avoided prosecution for anything to do with the private email server, and it's intent. ...
Stuck in the past there Stuart? There is no more 'Soviet empire', hasn't been since 1991. NATO became redundant when the Warsaw Pact disbanded and the Soviet Union broke up. The Russian Federation isn't a threat to Europe, or anyone for that matter. They ...
Hyperbole. Trump at the very least is attempting to repair relations between two nuclear superpowers who's relationship has been seriously damaged by the Democrat witch hunt. The whole Russian collusion narrative is false. See statement from congressman ...
Carolyn, 'Identity politics' does not equal 'LGBTI+'. Nor did I imply LGBTI+ people are 'fringe groups'. I'm of no doubt that LGBTI+ people are affected by the distraction I think is caused by identity politics, and I consider LGBTI+ people to be in that ...
The baker is very obviously in the wrong here. Refusal of service on the basis of sexuality is (as others have pointed out) a breach of human rights in New Zealand. Imagine the howls of uproar if a gay baker refused to serve a devout christian on the basis...
Realpolitik manifests itself in some very strange ways doesn't it? Dam those evil Russians wanting their independence and sovereignty! How dare they. Seems Russia is to blame for any number of things from 'election hacking' with the purpose of putting ...
MS I'd beg to differ. Imo the US is a rogue state and has been since its inception. US aggression has been ceaseless throughout its history, resulted in deaths of hundreds of millions of innocents, and the decimation of nations and cultures in its wake. ...
They may be a dupe, but poor I highly doubt! Poor in form, intellect, tact, and retort yes indeed. On a troll scale of 1-10 I'd rate 'poor' ol' babs maybe a 2.. 3 at a stretch (for at least being consistently rabid).
The ignorance being displayed by some here is astonishing. It’s Angry Andy’s own tag and release dog whistle club at its worst. Care to substantiate your assertion? What is this ignorance you claim is on display by some 'here' that is so astonishing? ...
Nail on head. The lie that is neoliberalism = fractional reserve banking. Credit creation in the form of debt conjured by key stroke is the single biggest scam ever pulled in history. It’s two purposes; expand power of the ruling class, and enslave the ...
Also remember Netanyahu is fighting for his political life right now, which also brings another level of unpredictability into the equation. I think we all know that historically what leaders will do to hang on to power is littered with bad decisions and ...
I’d say there’s a fair percentage out there still stuck at denial!
Cui bono? Who else but National? I find it almost amusing that one of National’s mouth pieces in Audrey Young steps up with such a weak and transparent attempted ‘rear guard’ action against this tragic unfairness. Why was Audrey so compelled to highlight ...
Indeed. Who is supposed to govern a nation with a group of deranged narcissists... i.e. Bolton, Pompeo, Haspel (*TBC), Sessions, Nielsen, Mnuchin ...
